Hejsan,
looks like you're matching my best proficiencies and interests altogether in one project :-)
I have my bachelor from Computer Network Engineering and am currently doing my masters in the same area. I have a lot of experience in networks and also have Cisco CCNA certification. I'm also working as Linux system administrator, facing a lot of security related topics on daily manner. IT security is my hobby and I do have good understanding of current encryption systems.
Regarding sw developement, Python is my language of choice almost everytime when C/C++ is not required. Currently, I'm also working on Bitcoin exchange website (backend), powered on Python/Django.
I'd like to know more about your project, please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any additional questions.
